Thread 725732234

gaben was the final push for me to decide to get a job so i can buy this

>>725732292
this is going to be cheap as hell so you dont have to worry

>>725732292
cool anon which job are you getting

>>725732416
i'm broke with 0$ to my name

>>725732496
i have a diploma as an application developer, something in the IT sector (i know)

>>725732416
Evidence to support this bold claim?

>>725732583
>generic resolution
>generic field of view
>monochrome passthrough cameras
>lcd instead of oled
>AA batteries for controllers
>loots very Plasticky
it's clearly a budget headset akin to the quest 2

>>725732234 (OP)
I dont even what game would be cool on vr

>>725732787
know*

>>725732787
I want to play the Metro VR game. Also, games like Beatsaber are almost a workout.

>>725732710
That means they'll just make more money

>>725732574
well good luck anon, I'm graduating in cybersecurity soon so I also have to look for a job eventually I know

>>725733037
Thanks, it'll be hard since I was neeting for 5 years but I'll mange.

>>725732787
every game
flat gaming feels gay and cringe

>>725733254
is there any reason why you were neeting like that
were you just rotting in front of your pc or were you working on something
I think the bar is so low that if you have any drive and motivation to even get out of your room you are kinda ahead of the curve

>>725732234 (OP)
Do the goggles do anything?

>>725732864
metro is very good

played a bit of beat saber but i prefer pistol whip (basically beat saber with shooting instead of sabers)

>LCD
may as well put them in cereal boxes

>>725732787
Flight sims and Mechwarrior if it were not the most mismanaged brand name in the last 100 years. There should have been HOTAS setups bundled with the major headsets.

>>725733378
I was rotting big time, and I'm in my late 20s now, and the job market is very competitive here (companies are interested in engineering diplomas), and I'm a college drop out.
Well, I made my bed now I have to lay in it. At least I have some work experience.

>>725732994
No matter what, this won't sell more than a couple million over the entire lifespan. Valve really doesn't need the extra few hundred bucks per sale when they get that much every year from each of their 30 million monthly users.

>>725732710
>>lcd instead of oled

>Have been wanting to play Metro VR forever now
>Have been waiting for a new headset model since the Index's black levels during Alyx's lights out areas were HORRIBLE, can't imagine an entire game going through that
>lcd

welp

Except for anyone with myopia.

>>725732787
bullying kids, asians, and furries in VR Chat

>>725733624
Lol I'm 34 your fucked
I missed the boat by well over a decade same as you

>2k lcd

>>725734674
lens inserts

>>725733613
You have no idea how much I want to pilot a mech in VR.

>>725736081
Valve can just make a new "compute unit" with micro oled

>>725732292
Good fucking luck there are no jobs right now.

>>725732292
Unironically me

>>725733269
big deals I can do this on my keyboard saars

>>725732234 (OP)
>saves gaming
by making a Quest 3.1

>>725732234 (OP)
let's be real, VR is still a complete meme even by the standards of the videogames industry

>>725741513
oh yeah forgot

Cringe:
It can't run half life alyx standalone

>>725741513
>>One Valve guy confirmed ther's no 1st party VR game
not one -in development-
HL3 is complete and ready to ship, steam frame exclusive

>>725732234 (OP)
Oh man i can't wait to play all those amazing VR games...

Depending on the price this will be a very appealing first dip into the VR world.

I wish it had color cameras.
Or at least the option to add a color camera from the get go.

>>725732234 (OP)
I got a quest 3 thinking it'll be fun, now I only ever use it to watch vr porn. The tech is coming along to make it more immersive and fun but all the shit you need to make it worth it just cost too much

So wtf can I actually do with one of these?
Ive considered it for gooning purposes but is there really anything out there thats good?
I dont care for VR games. But Id atleast give them a go.

It just seems like VR never really became big enough to justify the hardware.

>>725741513
Is it even possible to FALD a screen that small?

>>725732234 (OP)
I was hoping it was those screen-on-glasses things when I heard the "Steam Frame" name. Still don't see the need for VR.

>>725742725
i have an nreal one its kinda shit
steam frame seems to be an amazing offer in comparison

>>725742178
>m-m-MUH I DONT CARE
>m-m-MUH NEVER REALLY BECAME BIG ENOUGH
pick one

>>725742969
I don't want full goggles wrapping around my head and giving me the panda eyes though. Just need a screen in front of the eyes.

>>725743075
Do you think those are mutually exclusive stances?
>statement
>rational behind it
What exactly do you want me to pick, anon? Are you perhaps, retarded?

So you can play any game in or with this right? Like new Vegas and any game in your library. It sounds crazy.

>>725745687
Yeah, and old or indie games will just run natively. APK apps will be hosted right on steam. It's oculus quest, but with windows games compatibility, no Zucc bulshit closed system, and top tier streaming from your main PC. AND they say it's gonna cost less than index. Even with VR getting less games lately this thing sounds too coll, I want it.

>>725732234 (OP)
>MSRP 399$ for googles
>real price after scalpers 999$
That shit will be on permanent "sold out" and you know it.

>>725732710
As long as I can use it without making a fucking facebook account its by default better than the quest.
